PART 2 OF SCOLIOSIS TREATMENTS: With bracing there’s so many kinds of braces that can be use. Each brace is used to correct a different form of scoliosis and used for different increments of time. For full time bracing which is 22-24 hours a day there’s the Boston brace, Wilmington brace and the Milwaukee brace. For nighttime bracing which is 8-10 hours there’s the Charleston bending brace and the Providence brace. Also some doctors have different forms of bracing they’ve created. When creating your brace you can get plain white or some offer prints and designs that you can have your brace made of. Bracing is used for children with a 25° or greater curvature in their spine. The purpose of bracing is to keep the curvature from progressing to the point where surgery is required. Some patients have the ability to decrease curvature via bracing. braces can be worn over or under clothing. #scoliosis #scoliosisawareness #tennessee #bentnotbroken #scoliosiswarrior
